See FAQ for seating questions. “Have you ever had sleep paralysis?” asks Cadogan, discussing the title track of the trio’s latest offering. “That’s what ‘Gravity Freeze’ is written about. It’s like a nickname I gave to that moment where you’ve woken up and you’re still dreaming. Cast in the grand tradition of great British rock bands, & fueled by a love of American blues, funk and soul, Little Barrie’s sixth studio album is the first released solely under the band’s own name since the death of drummer Virgil Howe in September 2017. The LP follows more than two decades of activity that have established the band as a key force in UK psychedelic rock and soul. Following Howe’s passing, Cadogan and founding bassist Lewis Wharton placed the future of the band on hold. Work on the new LP began in late '23 & was recorded at Rat Salad Studios in Hornsey, London, with Rupert Lyddon (co-founder of ‘80s-inspired outfit Grand National), serving as co-producer. Gravity Freeze feels textured, concise, and infectious. Its less-is-more approach is defined by the brooding opener “More Bad Miles Of Road”–the title appears to echo the work of ‘50s guitar pioneer Duane Eddy, its sonic depth serving as a reminder of Little Barrie’s irresistible soulful qualities. Gravity Freeze was written & sequenced with vinyl in mind & marks over 25 years since Little Barrie's first singles on Stark Reality. The release is a new chapter for the band following a nine-year gap since their previous studio album.
